JBL Tune 225TWS vs Soundcore Liberty Air 2 - Where are the differences?

There are a few differences between the two True-Wireless Headphones. Let's take a closer look at the points in comparison between the Tune 225TWS from JBL and the Soundcore Liberty Air 2.

Which headphones have the better battery life?

A crucial point for headphones without cables is always the battery life. Here many headphones differ and the capacity grows from year to year. The battery life of the Soundcore Liberty Air 2 is longer here with 7,0 hours, which is of course better. With a lower battery life of up to 5,0 hours, the JBL Tune 225TWS scores worse at this point. Depending on the settings, the battery life turns out significantly lower. The specifications always refer to the ideal case.

For true-wireless headphones, an additional battery in the case has become popular. This way the headphones gain more battery life and can be conveniently charged on the go. Here the Soundcore Liberty Air 2* offers more power overall. With Case, the headphones have a battery life of up to 28,0 hours. With the JBL Tune 225TWS, the battery life is up to 25,0 hours.

Wie werden die Kopfhörer geladen?

Bei dem Ladenanschluss setzten beide Geräte auf die gleiche Technologie. Beide werden per USB-C geladen.

Ein höhrer Standard ist hier immer besser. Die Ladedauer wird verkürzt und du kannst, wenn alle Geräte aktuell sind, die gleichen Kabel nutzen.

Die Ladedauer der Geräte:

• JBL Tune 225TWS*: 24,0 minutes Ladezeit für 1,0 hours Akkulaufzeit
• Soundcore Liberty Air 2*: 10,0 minutes Ladezeit für 2,0 hours Akkulaufzeit

Noise Cancelling: ANC

Practical, but not always available: Atkive Noise Cancelling. Both headphones come without Active Noise Cancelling (short: ANC). Thus, you have to do without active noise cancellation with the JBL Tune 225TWS and the Soundcore Liberty Air 2.

Welche Bluetooth Version ist verbaut?

On the subject of Bluetooth, we don't have any differences between the JBL Tune 225TWS and Soundcore Liberty Air 2. Both TWS headphones run via Bluetoot 5.0. In general, a newer version is always better. Here, the Bluetooth affects the quality of the transmission and the energy consumption.

Can the earbuds be used separately?

The right earbud can be used independently of the left earbud on almost any True-Wireless headphone. Rarely, the left headphone can be used separately, because they work in dependency of the right ear plug. Mostly the right headphone is the so called master. In this case both the JBL Tune 225TWS and the Soundcore Liberty Air 2 can use this feature.

Are there changeable attachments?

In contrast to the JBL Tune 225TWS, the Soundcore Liberty Air 2* offers you changeable attachments for the ear studs. This gives you more wearing comfort and the headphones can be individually adjusted to the ears.

Are the headphones waterproof?

Unlike the JBL Tune 225TWS, the Soundcore Liberty Air 2* is certified with IPX5. However, an IP certification does not directly mean waterproof. Depending on the certification, the headphones are only water- or sweat-resistant. However, a higher number in the certification is generally better. With Bluetooth headphones there is also the problem that Bluetooth is disturbed by water. Thus, the use when swimming is only possible with special headphones.
